Mushkin, Inc., an industry-leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance and mission-critical computer products, announced today the official availability of the world's fastest USB flash drive -- the Ventura Ultra. First unveiled at CES 2013, the Ventura Ultra 240GB USB 3.0 flash drive is the fastest in the world of its kind.

"The Ventura Ultra will be fantastic for anyone with the data transfer rates it offers. It is the fastest USB flash drive that Mushkin has to offer, and is the fastest that the world can currently offer. The media and large file transfer capability is phenomenal -- anyone will be able to maximize its potential," said Nicolas Villalobos, Director, Global Marketing at Mushkin, Inc.

They always claim these speeds but when you benchmark them they're always like 200MB slower lol.

Their claims are only valid on the software THEY used for benchmarking.
You need to use that software and look for the "one" transfer size that goes up too their claim.

That's nothing new. It's the same with SSD's and it's obvious you can only get these speeds at certain scenarios. But it's about time somebody released something that is starting to use USB 3.0. it's been around for a long time and I haven't seen many products that actually use it's capabilities to at least some degree. Am afraid that the price will be astronomical though..
